Liquid crystal display device

A display device, which exhibits improved image qualities has a pair of substrates which sandwich a liquid crystal layer therebetween. On one of the substrates there are a plurality of video signal lines, a plurality of pixel electrodes, which are arranged in a matrix array and to which video signals are supplied from the video signal lines, and a plurality of conductive layers, which are provided at positions where portions thereof overlap with the video signal lines by way of an insulation film. The respective conductive layers are electrically connected to respective video signal lines. Further, the conductive layer is able to prevent light irradiated from a backlight from leaking through a gap defined between two neighboring pixel electrodes.
